The Baron, by Irish Birdcatcher—Echidna, by Economist, Whether for racing or goneral purposes, CRAWFORD PRIORY'S breeding cannot be excelled, ob his pedigree contains the names of most of the greatest stud successes known to fame. Riddlesworth was by Emilius, and any of his descendants are hirlily esteemed, and justly so, thoir genuineness being universally admitted. CRAWFORD PRIORY'S, dam Peradventure, through her 3ire Adventurer, is a great, granddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, theg g.g. damof Peradventure, was Riddlesworth s granddam.

Conjecture recently at Adelaide ran second for the £2,000 Cup, beating everything opposed to her but Malta. She afterwards at auction realised a thoußaF' guineas. Guesswork going to the same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas, Peradventure's four foals by Gan? Forward were sold for two thousand 6ix hundred and thirty guineas, an average of over six hundred and fifty guineas each which would have Vden largely increased had not Crawford Priory been withdrawn from competition according to arrangement after the first bid, and it should be remembered that these prices were obtained in one of the in thoroughbred horses can be counted by hundreds of thousands sterling'.
